七十二 (Voice Post, Japanese / Off-Network)

Before, you said that things would be fine.

There are things that I wanted to make you see, but it's pointless now. Both you and your "Master" are now gone.

If you were still here, I doubt that you would be able to say those words so easily as you did then, Testament.

Kantarou, you said before that we should try and go somewhere and make ourselves as safe as possible before.

I hope you have a plan.

Well.... [No, no he didn't.] Of course I do! Though, before we tried to do anything, it would be nice to know how they're going after people.

[ In answer to that very question, the door is suddenly kicked open! A man in a military uniform stands there. ]

[onikui-haruka.livejournal.com]

Tch.

[Haruka reaches out, pushing Kantarou forcefully down low to the ground. Looks like they'll have to find a different exit, for one.]

[kan_chyan]

[Kantarou's first reaction was to turn his attention to the door as it was kicked down, his expression one of shock.]

What the-

[But then he was shoved to the ground.]

[hollisland.livejournal.com]

[ The soldier certainly hears this, but he stays still for a moment in the doorway, scanning the room for any obvious threats. There being none... he steps into the room properly, holding his rifle at the ready. ]

[onikui-haruka.livejournal.com]

...

[He held back on the temptation to hush Kantarou.

Crouched down low to the ground himself, Haruka carefully leaned his head out far enough to watch the soldier's movements. If he continues to advance like this, then their hiding place will be found soon enough.]

The other door. It may be blocked now, but it will be even more risky to try to get past him to leave the other way.

Get Nai and Cirno.

[He stretched one hand out to the side, sharp claws growing out from his fingertips.]

I will...

[kan_chyan]

The window might be an option but....

[He looked down to Haruka with concern. In their current condition, even if Haruka still had his youkai physical attributes.]

Be careful.

[hollisland.livejournal.com]

[ He kicks at a few things, sure he'd heard voices. Oh well. It was a matter of time, really. He pauses briefly to check his gun, then continues to advance. ]

[onikui-haruka.livejournal.com]

[Haruka nodded back. He wouldn't be able to use his lightening like this, or retrieve his shakujou quickly. That means brute strength is his best option now.

He braced himself low, keeping an eye on the soldier and that weapon. Then he rushed out with intense speed toward the Hollislander, with claws bared and one hand reaching forward to push the barrel of the gun aside before he decides to shoot it off.]

Now, go!

[kan_chyan]

[This sort of plan... this sort of plan against a military man! It was all wrong! He should have thought harder sooner, he should have worked out getting somewhere days ago!

When Haruka gave the signal, he was prepared to make a way out, but first he took a stack of paper that was near by and threw it into the air. Most of it had random things written on it. Some were short stories, other's were observations, chants, or other things he had written down when bored, but now he hoped they could work as a distraction.]

-GUESS WHO IS INCONVENIENTLY WAKING UP FROM A NAP BECAUSE OF THE NOISE?-

Huh? What's going on?

[hollisland.livejournal.com]

[ As soon as he spots the movement of Haruka, he fires, his aim slightly off due to the papers flying-- but he doesn't care. Gunshot, gunshot, gunshot, all in the correct general direction. Hopefully that will halt the attack. ]

[onikui-haruka.livejournal.com]

[He can just barely hear the sound of Cirno's voice. Damn. It's too late for him to stop now! He brushes past the falling paper, keeping his target in mind.

Haruka flinches at the sound of the gunfire. Bang. One brushes against his cheek. Bang. Another gouges the skin of his left shoulder, putting a tear in the fabric. Bang. Nothing but air, and the sound of glass shattering in the backdrop. ...got you now!

He reaches out to grab hold of the barrel of the gun with one hand, angling it downward, while the other is thrust toward the side of the soldier's throat like a knife.]

You bastard...!

[kan_chyan]

[The sound, the sound was just... did guns sound like that? He almost fell over trying to make his way out, but finally did make it to the door.]

Cirno chan! Get out!

[baka-jyanai.livejournal.com]

-The combination of the gunshot noise, the sight of Haruka flashing past, and Kantarou's shouting caused the small fairy to freak out, screaming as she ducked to hide somewhere.-

[hollisland.livejournal.com]

[ Preoccupied with Haruka, he barely pays the other two attention. He simply drops the gun when Haruka grabs it, ducking his head back out of reflex - not enough to avoid everything, but enough to keep from an instant fatality. With his now-empty hands, he pulls out his hunting knife and slashes forward, glad for his helmet. ]

[onikui-haruka.livejournal.com]

[His body sinks down as the soldier drops his gun, his hand jerked at an angle by the heavy weapon.] Tch. [Haruka lets go of it, already seeing that he missed the mark.]

[As he tries to drawn both of his hands back quickly, the Hollislander is able to land a clean cut across his chest, causing Haruka to grunt. That hurt.

Regaining his balance, he quickly lifts his leg up to kick the man away from both him and the dropped gun. He's not going to let you have it back!]

[kan_chyan]

[Kantarou's main concern was to get out, he was already at the door and going back wasn't an option. But, instead of just leaving completely he stayed, not because Cirno was in the room, but because Haruka was fighting. What if he went too far... even with these people....]

We should go as soon as we can!

[ He kept to the otherside of the wall, ready to run if he had to.]

[baka-jyanai.livejournal.com]

-Cirno was no longer where she was a second ago. Or even listening to Kantarou. She was running up and jumping onto the soldier's back, fists slamming down.-

DON'T YOU HURT HARUKA, YOU STUPID BASTARD!
